Hex properties are an obstacle to removal of old qdev string parsing, but
even here we can lay down the foundations for future simplification. In
general, they are rarely used and their printed form is more interesting
than the parsing. For example you'd usually set isa-serial.index
instead of isa-serial.iobase. And luckily our main client, libvirt
only cares about few of these, and always sets them with a 0x prefix.
So the series stops accepting bare hexadecimal numbers, preparing for
making legacy properties read-only in 1.3 or so. The read side will
stay as long as "info qtree" is with us.
